Passing

1. Koy Detmer Jr., Somerset: 23 of 35 passes, 372 yards, five TDs
Little Koy and the Bulldogs lost to perennial power Port Lavaca Calhoun, but it wasn’t for lack of offense. Their defense is more on par with your typical 3A team, which means Somerset could make some real noise in its own classification.

2. Brandon Ramon, Harlandale: 12 of 18 passing, 266 yards, five TDs
The senior put together this nifty line pretty effortlessly against an overmatched Burbank secondary. He hooked up with James and Joshua Mendoza five times for 189 yards and four TDs.

3. Walker Franz, Seguin: 18 of 25 passes, 284 yards, two TDs
While RB Colton Applewhite carried the load for the Mats in their first two wins, Franz aired it out in a big win over Austin Crockett.

1. Marquie Hinton, Stevens: 28 carries, 305 yards, three TDs
Ladies and gentlemen, we have our first 300-yard rusher of the season. Hinton, who it’s no surprise reached the mark, carried the Falcons to a 42-35 district-opening win over Taft.

2. Bryan London, Randolph: 19 carries, 179 yards, four TDs
London provided about two-thirds of the Ro-hawks’ offense and all but one of their touchdowns in a 34-14 victory over Karnes City.

3. Gibreel Evans, New Braunfels Canyon: Nine carries, 161 yards, three TDs
After dominating a top 10 team in Roosevelt last week, it’s time to recognize that the Cougars are pretty darn good. Evans showed off his game-breaking ability, which compliments QB Philip Shelton’s buising style well.

Receiving

1. Kash Knutson, Reagan: Eight catches, 175 yards, two TDs
As you’ll see shortly, another Rattler will get a lot of credit for Reagan’s comeback win at Pflugerville, but Knutson played a huge part as he’s developed into Ty Summers’ favorite target.

2. P.J. Anderson, Taft: Six catches, 149 yards, three TDs
The Texas State commit had a breakout performance in the loss to Stevens. While Taft has struggled early, the offense has made some strides. If the Raiders want to contend for a playoff spot, they’ll need Anderson to keep it up.

3. Davionne Vasquez, MacArthur: Nine catches, 160 yards, two TDs
Mac is 0-3, but not because of its offense. The Brahma passing game looked very good against Laredo United. The problem? The defense allowed 600-plus yards.

All-around

1. Ty Summers, Reagan QB: 10 of 18 passes, 246 yards, two TDs; 181 rushing yards, five TDs
That’s, count ’em, seven total TDs for Reagan’s breakout star. Even more impressive is the fact that Summers did almost all of that work in the second half, pulling the Rattlers out of a 30-14 halftime hole to win 47-37.

3. Da’Shawn Key, Brennan QB: Nine of 15 passes, 141 yards, three TDs, one INT; 19 carries, 137 yards, two TDs
Brennan’s defense again stole the show against East Central with another dominant performance, but don’t forget about Key, who scored five touchdowns about as quietly as possible.
